Aaj main fir jeeyunga!

Apni khwaishon ko maan mein dabaye na jaane main kya dhoonta hun,
Doosron khi khushi ke liye hi jaise ki rooz main jeeta hun.

Na jaane kab main khud ke liye jeeyunga,
Doosron ki parva kiye bagair aakaash mein udunga.

Baiparvah bairok-tok unn baadlon ko chu-unga,
Kismat se baikhauf apne hi sapne bun-unga.

Ai-kash woh kal fir na aaye,
Aur hum kahin yun hi ruk jayein.

Apni yaadon ko saamete potli mein dal kahin khoob gunn gunayein,
Na koyi fir na chinta sataye.

Inn khushiyon ko saamete fir apne sapno ka ghar banayein,
Kaash yeh waqt aaj yahin thaam jaye.

I'm just a Sailor of your Ship

There may be many Admirers but I need no Followers,

I'm a simple soul just like you who need no idol-Worshipping but just a humble Gratitude.

I ain't no Special rather try and do things Specially for you,

I do not desire to Change you but Respect you for what you are.

 

Your Frustrations doesn't disappoint me, rather give me Hope that you'll work harder each day.

I Rejoice in your happiness without letting you know, my Tear drops make me realise it so.

I do not wish you standing Next to me, but rather Surpassing me some day,

'coz I never wanted you to be like Me but rather to be Yourself one day.

A day will come when you'll see me no more but my teachings will remain with you for-sure.

 

I can see the time flow and the day when I would recall your name,

Soon those tear-drops will roll back into my eyes when I'll see your fame,
With no words I would then explain: 'how proud I'm on you today'.

 

PERFORM T’LL CURTAINS FALL

PERFORM T’LL CURTAINS FALL

Life tests you every moment.

It makes you realise its importance.
The struggle involved makes you rethink.
It disheartens you most times.
But you live to prove yourself each day, day after day.

Thought often crosses one’s mind as to what are we chasing after all?
It’s a mad race which we all 'have' to follow.
We are 'not free', not free from the duties and responsibilities.
Something pulls you every second, hitting you with harsh realities.
Sandwiched between what’s ethical and emotional,
where these two ends never meet.
The one who dares to stand alone is dismissed.

After all what are we doing and what for?

Stop for a moment and think what have we achieved, is it worth?
Or what we will accomplish will that be of any good?
We all perform, perform each day but do we live for ourselves?
No one knows the answer nor realises it.
We are just puppets and mere puppets who struggle each day to perform and survive.

Spot-lights are on,  the stage is set, so wake-up and perform!
